FacebookMy husband and I were recommended to Mel from a mutual contact who said he was the only estate agent they would deal with to sell their property, and having used Hipps and Mel, we have a similar feeling.
Having used estate agents in the past and never truly been happy with the service we were nervous and highly sceptical at the beginning, but it was a pleasure through the whole process. The service was above and beyond in every aspect, clear plans and strategies were discussed and everything was carried out according to those plans. What really set Mel and Hipps apart though was that at every point we felt like we had someone that was working to ensure we were happy and comfortable, not that they were working for a fee, or trying to get a quick sale which is so often the case. As a result we very quickly trusted everything he said and took his advice on how to position and price the property, how to handle negotiations and what to do at every stage.
Even when we faced challenges like losing a buyer because we were taking too long to find somewhere the service was superb, we never received any pressure from Hipps, instead just the constant reminder that this was about us and to make sure we were happy, that they were happy to work hard to get back to the same position again, which they did.
We are now looking forward to moving into a dream property and feel we wouldn’t be here without Mel and the Hipps team.
We genuinely can’t say enough positive things about the experience and would recommend the service to all and sundry.

FacebookHaving recently purchased a house marketed by Hipps, I can thoroughly recommend them. From friendly, polite, first encounter during enquiry, through to a relaxed viewing appointment (it was only later that we realised how long we spent looking around!). Then at offer stage I am extremely grateful for the effort Mel put in that resulted in our offer being accepted. Sure there were stresses during the selling/buying/moving process, but Hipps were in no way a contributor and I wish them all the best!

GoogleMel & the team at Hipps are just fantastic! So personable, friendly and efficient - from taking the photos and advertising our house to selling it through to completion took only 12 weeks...Mel sold our house within 48hrs! We were so happy and couldn't have wished for a better Estate Agent to help us!

GoogleFantastic experience with Mel from Hipps. Very pragmatic and gets the job done at great rates. We had a whole chain fall though three months ago with another agent. We listed our property with Hipps and within 2 weeks our house was sold and three months later we are into our next property with as little stress as there could be in this process.

FacebookI cannot recommend Hipps enough! Mel and Jen have been fantastic throughout quite a lengthy process. They were both always just a phone call away and were very patient with us and our situation. They both offered great advice and were transparent on every part of the process. If you want to sell your house knowing that the estate agent has your best interests at heart Hipps is the company for you!

GoogleWe bought our property through Hipps and when we were ready to sell we knew who we wanted to list with. Mel looked after us as first time buyers (and first time sellers). He made the whole process as seamless as possible and could not have physically done more to help us. Highly recommend.

GoogleWe used Hipps to purchase a flat for my Dad, Mel, the owner is the best Agent I have ever dealt with. He was helpful and knowledgeable, very kind to my Dad throughout the process and recommended some great solicitors (Surrey Property Lawyers), a removal a company and a local Carpet firm, all of which were excellent.PositiveProfessionalism

GoogleMel at Hipps has been absolutely fantastic helping my partner and I buy our first place together. We had by far the best viewings we’ve had with Hipps and the local knowledge has been really useful. Mel also pointed us towards a great solicitor and has helped guide us through the whole process for a very quick completion.

GoogleWe have used Mel to sell a couple of our houses in the last few years and he always delivers! If you want to deal with an agent that has honesty, and integrity (which are so important when you are selling and buying) then Hipps is the place to go. Can't recommend them enough 5 STARS

GoogleHaving recently sold two properties through Hipps we would (and have) definitely recommend them. Mel and Mike have loads of estate agency experience and more importantly have a very good knowledge of the local market. We found both friendly and helpful and the business was run with the flexibility only an independent company can offer.

GoogleHipps are brilliant, can't recommend them enough. They managed to sell our house and find us a new one with skill, care and ease. Mel and Mike are like the dynamic duo - working tirelessly to sell your house or help you find a new one. We would definitely list with them in the future.

FacebookHardest Working Agent you could ever hope to find. Works tirelessly for the client and helps smooth the way between buyer, seller and two sets of lawyers. I cannot recommend highly enough after selling two properties in the last three months for my father's estate. Definitely goes the extra mile.
